Chu Ling got up very early, and the wine he wanted to sell after drinking had been distilled and blended. Chu Ling felt that it was time to open the tavern. Even if it was not famous, Chu Ling believed that his wine would definitely become famous in the world!
"Sir, according to your instructions, we have signed contracts with several nearby restaurants."
Liu Jun took several contracts and ran into the tavern with a red face. "This is the contract. Take a look at it first. It is drawn up according to what you said. Each family will provide what they need to the tavern and the accounts will be settled at the end of the month."
.”
"It will take a lot of effort."
Chu Ling took the contract and saw Liu Jun was sweating, and smiled slightly.
"It takes a lot of words."
Liu Jun wiped his sweat and frowned and said: "At first they were reluctant because they thought it was unreliable. But after the bet was proposed and it was beneficial to them, they were all willing to try it for a month."
Chu Ling smiled and shook her head.
"Nothing but Young Master~"
Liu Jun hesitated, hesitated for a moment, looked at Chu Ling and said: "Why don't you start the fire after drinking? I have made a calculation, if I hire a few..."
“The special feature of Jiu Ba Qu is the wine.”
Chu Ling waved her hand and interrupted: "What I want to open is a tavern, not a restaurant. As long as it can be opened around this feature, come and have a drink. The most important thing is to drink. If you really want to fill your stomach, you can go elsewhere.
The restaurants I asked you to go to all have their own characteristics, and you can save a lot of money by using their expertise in formulating daily recipes."
Liu Jun seemed to understand but not quite.
Chu Ling checked the contracts in his hand one by one. If they were consistent with what he mentioned, he put them away. The Feng Dynasty paid great attention to contracts. Whenever he got into a lawsuit, as long as there was a contract, many things would be clear. This
It also made the Feng Dynasty's private commerce very prosperous.
Chu Ling liked this very much.
In fact, what Liu Jun said was only part of the reason. The main reason was that Chu Ling had no money and he could not hire a chef.
A penny can stump a heroic man.
Chu Ling spent all the hundreds of gold he earned from selling poems. He wanted to open a business after drinking. He couldn't just sell wine without food to go with the wine, so Chu Ling thought of this way.
"Hey, please slow down."
Liu Jun saw Jun Hanlin holding two large jars of wine, and hurriedly ran towards Jun Hanlin, "Don't be greedy for too much work. If this is smashed, the loss will be too great."
"Don't get in the way, stay out of the way."
Jun Hanlin's face was not red and he was out of breath. He looked sideways at Liu Jun and said, "You run out to take a break. I won't move like this. I will work until the Year of the Monkey."
"Who's taking a break?"
Liu Jun glared and said, "I'm doing business. I'm going to open my business after drinking..."
"Okay, got it."
Jun Hanlin said casually: "Go and do your work as the shopkeeper. Just let me, the waiter, do these little things."
Seeing the two bickering, Chu Ling smiled and shook her head.
After drinking, the business was about to open. Liu Jun and Jun Hanlin were very motivated, but the shopkeeper and the waiter were all doing their own thing, which was rare.
So what did Jun Hanlin do in the past?
Chu Ling suppressed her smile and looked at Jun Hanlin's back. A wine jar weighing dozens of kilograms can be held firmly with one hand, which is impossible for ordinary people.
"Get them all through this young master!!!"
An arrogant voice came from the street. Chu Ling followed the sound and saw a lot of people gathering outside after finishing drinking. Their heads were shaking.
"What is this going to do?"
"Whoever spent so much money actually bought several shops."
"Eh... isn't that the little bully from Duke Shun's mansion?"
"It's true..."
Chu Ling came out from the counter and walked towards the outside of the tavern. Through the surging crowd in front of her, she saw many healthy servants gathered in the shop opposite.
It's them.
Chu Ling's eyes were fixed on a certain place, and when he saw a familiar figure, the corners of his mouth raised slightly. He did not expect that Li Qian and Li Kun were actually starting to mess around opposite where they had stopped drinking.
"Sir, after drinking, I'm going to meet my opponent."
At some point, Jun Hanlin, who was working, walked up to him and said jokingly: "Yipitang, the shop has not been cleaned up yet, and the signs have been put up."
"Isn't that the young master of Duke Shun's mansion?"
Liu Jun frowned slightly and looked at the lively scene opposite, "No, why are the shops across the street cleared? What are you trying to do?"
"It's obvious."
Jun Hanlin folded his hands in front of his chest and said with a faint smile: "I want to compete with the young master in the ring. Tsk, Tsk, the Shunguo Duke's mansion is really rich and powerful, and it has won so many shops in one move."
"Play in the ring?!"
Liu Jun looked surprised and looked at Chu Ling subconsciously, "Sir, how did you provoke Duke Shun's government? Why are they targeting you like this?"
"Just do the work."
Chu Ling turned around and walked towards the counter, "If they want to make trouble, just ask them to make trouble."
Liu Jun and Jun Hanlin looked at each other with different expressions.
It's getting more and more interesting.
Chu Ling returned to the counter and smiled. Li Qian and Li Kun were so generous and made so much noise. It was clear that they wanted to cash in. It didn't matter whether they made money or not. What was important was to grab the customers who would stop drinking. , but in Chu Ling’s eyes, this pattern is too small.
There was quite a commotion on the street, but it did not affect Chu Ling.
"Everyone, work harder! Master said, if Yipintang opens one day earlier, we will reward you with 5 taels of silver!"
"Come over here and take these things away."
"Hurry up, don't get confused, hurry up..."
Several stewards were scattered around, directing the servants under their command to be busy. Li Qian and Li Kun were sitting on the Grand Master's chair, drinking tea and looking at the busy people in front of them.
"This Chu Ling is calm enough."
Li Qian put down the tea cup casually, glanced at the wine opposite him, and sneered: "He made such a big fuss and didn't even come out to take a look. Okay, I want to see how long he can last. How dare he If you go against Duke Shun, you really don’t know your own position."
"Brother, why are you so anxious?"
Li Kun unfolded his ivory fan and looked at Li Qian with a smile, "Since it's for fun, let's have fun. Isn't this more interesting than going to a gambling house or a wine shop?"
"That is."
Li Qian looked arrogant and said: "That's all I've been playing over and over again. I'm tired of it. Sister left Xanadu and no one cares about us. It's good to find something to do for yourself."
Li Kun smiled and said nothing.
Earlier, when my sister was in Xanadu, they didn't dare to do anything inappropriate, so they would do it secretly. Although they were very restrained, it didn't feel like anything.
"Hurry up, Master!"
Li Qian stood up and pointed at the servant in front of him with his arms akimbo, "In two days, we will have Yipintang open."
"Here!"
Everyone responded one after another.
The crowd who stopped to watch, seeing the battle in front of them, all began to discuss heatedly. Li Qian was too generous. He bought several shops as soon as he started. He wanted to open a Yipintang restaurant opposite the wine shop to understand the previous situation. Everyone guessed that this was aimed at Chu Ling.
It is exactly like this that many people are thinking about what this Chu Ling does and why he interacts with Duke Shun Guo.
